Really insightful and thought-provoking article by Matthew Rowe (MCIPR) on the fundamental importance that marketers start to grasp the numbers, better understand the finances in the business and show how marketing activities directly impact the bottom line. It's also about asking the right questions. PM Forum #ProfessionalServices #Marketing #FinancialLiteracy

Apparently Broxbourne in Hertfordshire is one of the best places in the UK to retire. I grew up round there. It's a nice place but "the best place to retire in the UK"? It tops a truly bizarre list which includes Wimbledon, Stockport and Wrexham in what appears to be just a randomly generated list of place names. Reading on it would appear that someone (actually, Which?) has randomly crunched some data about green space and access to pharmacies and come up with some conclusions that don't survive contact with reality. Funnily enough I was on a briefing call yesterday about a senior Data role. We spent most of the time talking about communication - just having data with no sense of what story it might tell or whether that story is useful (or even makes any sense at all) is worse than useless. The key to driving value out of data is being about to understand the commercial imperatives and opportunities within the business. As always, we work with companies to help them find the people who solve business problems with technology solutions. Dipping into randomly selected data and drawing unsupportable conclusions is no use to a business. Apparently it works fine in journalism though. Vocative #data #value #business

We just passed 40 employees that all live here in southern Indiana. Here is what I learned from hiring over 50 employees in the last 5 Years: 1. Encourage conflict! Yes, this is surprisingly my number one tip. After reading five dysfunctions it helped me realize the importance of constructive conflict! A healthy organization cannot live without it 2. Have some sort of operating system like EOS. This has been a game changer 3. Spend the time to actively listen. Nothing worse than an employee that doesn't feel heard. 4. Make sure you communicate your vision, and you hire off of values. 5. Higher slow, fire fast. If somebody is not happy, it will spread like a cancer. most of the time it's because they're just not the right person for that role. 6. Positive people and negative people are both infectious. Try to pull in positive attitudes as much as possible. 7. Watch your overhead. People are your biggest assets and biggest expense. It is too easy to over hire. Make sure you have a healthy ratio of gross profit to overhead. Would love to know what ratio you consider healthy. I think anything better than one to three is good.
